British Equestrian Supporting Equestrian Business Development

British Equestrian, in conjunction with Get Grants held free sessions for equestrian centres using Sport England’s Together Fund.  This has helped educate a range of equestrian centres, particularly those that are registered charities, how they can raise funds, apply for grants and consider their business structures to improve their sustainability.

The PowerPoints can be found here:

• Bid Writing for Charities and Community Groups
• Fund Raising Training Session 1
• Fund Raising Training Session 2
